Hi everyone thank you so much for your help.yes my gran was born 1884 oxford and died Perth WA and died 1964 at our home as shelived with us from 1964 untill she died.Her mother and father were John Cox and Maria urry.John born in ireland and Maria born Hampshire i only know this as we have a card sent to ellen when her father died.on the 1871 UK cencus Ellen is listed as born in Oxford,the other brothers and sisters born all over the place even 1 in East India as he joined the army in ireland when he was 15 and retired from the army when he was 40.
As far as i can see Ellen May Cox arrived in fremantle W.A 25th Jan 1912 on the Orsova.I also have a Mr &Mrs Mcinnes +1 child arriving in Freo from Adelaide 25th Jan 1912,i dont think these people are them as John Arthur was born Dec 1913.

Hi merlin thank you. You have given me so much info.You have written his name as Arthur John is this correct or as i know its John Arthur,the number you have put after 934 it is that the ref number? i am going to find his birth certificate and order it to see if it gives me any more on his  parents. .
Regards Helen

Hi everyone thank you all i shall try again.
My father was Keith Mcinnes born 24th feb 1925 in Perth W.A
on his birth cert it reads as follows: Father (my grandfather)Arthur McInnes storekeeper 42 years born Kent England.
Mother (my grandmother :Ellen May Cox born: Oxford, England.
Married 15th jan 1912 london,England.(no listings of this marriage ever taken place)
This is where the problem comes in.On Arthurs death cert it reads that he died 1955 at the age of 79,his Father was Arthur T and mother was Elizabeth.
I dont have the worldwide memembership so i can't check if there is anymore info on his death cert.
I have looked up 1884 and 1876 for arthur worldwide but cant find him,also no marriage listed for Arthur and Ellen may Cox.
I dont think they married in england as my grandmother is listed as being on the Orsover as a single person when she migrated to Perth western Australia.
I hope this explains it better for you all and can help.Kind Regards,Helen
